Edwards out - Harris in

[Escaping Lion]

This decision tells me one thing we're skint

Have you only just realised that>
I have never been on Twatter in my life, and I knew it.
Ditto Facebook, Instagram and any one of a dozen sites you might think of.

Make you right. It also makes me look as stupid for even looking on there so I don't have a leg to stand on.

A tad surprised by this tbh, Harris's appointment that is, not that sacking of what was possibly our worst manager ever! With all due respect, I hope the appointment is on a temporary basis until the club is stable enough to get someone who can lift our game.

Not sure how this will turn out to be frank, but one thing is for sure, Harris will give 100% and that is all we can ask for. If he can prevent us from letting in the amount of goals we have been, we have a chance.

I have to give credit for the board for being brave enough to let him go now and not wait... this is the best I have felt in weeks.

C'mon Harris, time to be a legend again!

I might even consider changing my score on the League ladders! I'll wait a bit though

This. People thought Edwards was the cheap option.
We have now dipped into bargain basement.
Adam Mayor must be wondering wtf he has done.
Welcome to the asylum, Adam.

If the players play like Brazil on Saturday then we know why they played so poorly under JE.

I think he wants his head tested coming back to us, but if he does I hope he plays hard ball in his contract talks with the board and he wants full control of the team and not the Pratt’s in the board room.

All is not lost. You know the solution.

The players absolutely need to take their share of the blame. But believe me, there was something very wrong going on.

Yeah they ain’t fucking good enough.

 

[cold blow]

Feel sorry for the youngsters cant see them playing the way they want to or given the game time hope i am wrong but we will see which team is picked on Saturday, i would imagine his first task is to shore up the leaky defence.

[Peckham Lion]

Which one of you is gonna be the first to moan about hoof ball?

You?

This news caught me as a complete surprise. However we had to do something as there was something very wrong going on at the Den and we were heading down to L1 without a doubt. If you look at it from Bomber’s side of the coin he could have been quite happy to stay where he was. He had a contract at Cambridge, was having some success pulling them away from the bottom of their league and could have just stayed exactly where he was. Instead he has given up all the security to come back to the club he loves and a club where he is loved.
Bomber’s background is very different from Joe’s. He spent years playing in non League and the one characteristic he brings is that he is a great motivator of players. He can fire up the dressing room and get them to play out of their skins. Under his tenure we had some epic cup runs and you don’t beat the likes of Watford Leicester, Bournemouth and Everton by playing tippy tippy football!
I am not suggesting that this is an epic appointment but we have a greater chance of avoiding the drop but with Joe we had no chance and with Neil we have some chance. Last time Neil stepped up to take charge after the insane one we had 6 games to go and he nearly made it. This time he has thirteen games so he has my support. Let’s get behind him. COYL.

 

[Peckham Lion]

Rich Cawley saying it is not a short term deal. I suspect 18 months deal.

Yep.

 

[Poplar Lion]

You?

No not me, never wanted Harris gone the first time around.

However, the style will have to change at some point in the future, but when really is the right time to do it as it it will always take time...and money!

Welcome back LEGEND

One things for sure, this season has been an absolute car crash.

Aldridge and Kavanagh should walk before they do any more damage.

Appointing Edwards, who had no experience and wanted to seemingly overhaul our playing style without the players to really do it, was in hindsight an awful decision. Makes it worse that Aldridge approached and recommended Edwards for the job, which makes him directly responsible.

Harris coming in will potentially keep us up, but an 18 month contract is a bit concerning.

 

[Peckham Lion]

but this appointment smacks of covering the real issues at the club by trying to get the fans back on board to cover their own misgivings, weaknesses and failures.

They did the same after Holloway and Lomas. Nothing will change until Aldo fucks off. He's a fucking waste of good dough.

 

[King of The Jungle]

Good Luck Bomber!!

Stinks of Aldridge and Kavanagh covering their own A***S though! If Edwards goes after 19 games, then these two need to hold their hands up as well. Buck doesn't just sit with Edwards.

Who's this Buck fella?

 

[Arthur2shedsJackson]

I don't see why people think Harris will do better than he did last time

 

[Peckham Lion]

@robbo555 Told you he was toast mate. Was supposed to happen Sunday but details weren't sorted.
